@salome01w4g No, they’re about the same as far as violence goes.

@salome01w4g Good question. I’ll answer it for the whole book. I think the main potential issue would be violence. I never try to be gory, but I always include some details of violence. In chapter 2, there is a character who might seem a bit creepy and who kills a couple people (though without much description). In chapter 4, two innocent people…[Read more]

@destiny *facepalm* I knew I had forgotten somebody.

@amy-l-klob Welcome to the site! Glad you made your way over into getting an account. 😉 What sort of stuff do you like to read?

@warrioroftherealm YES!!! Definitely. It must have intrigue. I looove political intrigue.

Granted, that opinion is probably heavily tainted by the fact that I’m an ENFJ, but ENFJs are always right, so I declare this debate over

I personally enjoy political intrigue in fantasy, but I’m more interested in politics than most ppl. For example, I didn’t mind all the political maneuvering in Phantom Menace, even though most people hated it. 😛 (I disliked Phantom Menace for other reasons.) But it can certainly be done really well. Brandon Sanderson, Brent Weeks, and George…[Read more]

@joy Reading more widely should help you with writing stories with different themes.

As for the lessons your characters learn and the obstacles in their way, both of those lists seems good to me. I do, however, think that adding more obstacles could help make your story different. For instance, could there be a competitive suitor? Or maybe the…[Read more]

@hannah-c I’d be interested in doing it in January. I can’t guarantee it will work for me, but I think there’s a pretty good chance.

@salome01w4g Actually…the driver’s test isn’t that bad. I took it Friday (and passed, yay!) and it was much easier than I had anticipated. The most important thing is to just drive like you normally would. Don’t treat the test any different than you would while your mom or dad is in the car–just…drive.

*dashes in*

Sheesh, I leave for just one week, and when I come back, the forum’s already self-destructing. This is why you guys need me. ( @daughteroftheking And for thine information, dearie, no one is allowed to call @dragon-snapper ‘Kid’ except me. *sniffs indignantly* On account of being an elf and all. I’m the only one who can withstand her…[Read more]

@warrioroftherealm

Well, it depends. You should know that men don’t have a particularly large advantage over women in a one on one combat. The disparity mainly exists in battles where men can keep fighting way way longer.

The trick is, I assume this angel is quite competent with a sword. The best idea that comes to my mind is that she could try…[Read more]

Hi, @joy-schmidt 😀

@Dragon-snapper aw cool, I like it!

@Kate-Flournoy O-o that’s so epic.

Alright, kiddo–go wherever the wind takes ya. @dragon-snapper

Hey there! @joy-schmidt I’m pretty sure I’ve met you before, or follow you on social medias, or…something, but hello regardless! Life happens. I’m sure no one blames you for being slightly inactive as of late.

@kate-flournoy Hey–watch it, that’s my boss-lady and mentor you’re referencing. @hope might be slightly crazy but I love her anyway.

…Snapper, are you implying that there are more of you? If there’s a @dragon-snapper of the South, is there a Dragon Snapper of the East? North? West?

@Warrioroftherealm I have some sword fighting experience, so here’s my two pence.
– She’d have to use her lighter weight (I assume) to dodge around and use the landscape to her advantage.
– She could use a lot of deflecting methods (not directly blocking her opponent’s blow, but more of a ‘knocking it to the side’ idea, if that makes sense) and…[Read more]

@Joy-Schmidt hello!! *waves a welcome* Pleasure to meet you. 😀

@daughteroftheking @jessi-rae Plz no. >.>
